Algebra 2 6-5 Complete Lesson: Solving Square Root and Other Radical Equations

Algebra 2 6-5 Complete Lesson: Solving Square Root and Other Radical Equations

Solve It! You are a passenger in the car. You are using a cell phone that connects with the cell phone tower shown. The tower has an effective range of 6 mi. How many miles do you have to finish your call?

Problem 1 Got It?

Problem 2 Got It?

Problem 3 Got It?

Problem 4 Got It? Solve the radical equation. Check your results.

Problem 5 Got It?

Vocabulary: Which value, 12 or 3, is an extraneous solution of the equation?
Enter only a number.

Compare and Contrast: How is solving a square root equation similar to solving an absolute value equation? How is it different?

Review Lesson 6-4: Match each number on the left with its simplified form on the right.

Review Lesson 4-5: Consider the quadratic equation below.
1. Drag the factors of the quadratic expression from the left column into the top category on the right.
2. Drag the solution(s) of the quadratic equation from the left column into the bottom category on the right.

Review Lesson 2-1: Categorize values from the left to identify the domain and range of the relation. Then drag either Yes or No to respond to the question.

Vocabulary Review: Which equation is equivalent to the equation below?

Vocabulary Review: Match each solution from the left with the equation it solves on the right.

Vocabulary Review: What is the radicand in the expression?

Use Your Vocabulary: Categorize each statement as true or false.

Notes: Take a clear picture or screenshot of your Cornell notes for this lesson. Upload it to the canvas. Zoom and pan as needed.
